So, unfortunately, I am not the type of person who can magically create time to do everything that needs to get done. (I have known people of this persuasion, and it is freakin' amazing to see it in action). Therefore, I am finding myself with too many people (mostly friends) with whom I'd like to spend quality time, and too many dance venues I'd like to attend, and a lot of work that needs to get done, and I simply have no idea how to make it fit into a weekly schedule. I suppose I could create a monthly schedule, but that feels like surrender. You may as well tie a stone to my foot and push me in the drink, if I'm going to belly-up and only attend things or see people once or twice a month. The only other real option is for me to prioritize away a couple things, let slip the acquaintences that feel awkward or pointless, and schedule my work a little better. Unfortunately, that doesn't solve the problem of spending time with my friends. I think that I've given the impression (and perhaps I do feel this way too often) that my friends are much lower on the priority list than any sort of dancing I may be doing. After all, dance venues, and the people I see at them, are scheduled very far in advance, i.e. they are weekly, and so I can expect to go to them. My friends rarely make plans with me a week in advance (barring a couple very organized exceptions), and are liable to change plans a little or a lot. While I'm fine making plans last minute, I don't like breaking plans last minute. Blah blah, the point is, oh friend who may actually be reading this, if it isn't work, ask me to cancel it for you. Because you are important to me, and I'm a big shithead. Now, I must get ready for more working. I'm serving wine and helping with a wheelchaired guest at a dance event hosted by my aunt, and I need to go put on my tux and go. So, au revoir, blogger, until again.
